Hello, I’m Regina, a board-certified Psychiatric Mental Health Nurse Practitioner (PMHNP) with over 20 years of nursing experience caring for individuals and families across diverse backgrounds and stages of life. My nursing career has allowed me to support patients through some of their most vulnerable moments, including years working in hospice and end-of-life care, emergency medicine, addictions, and mental health. These experiences have shaped my compassionate, holistic approach to psychiatric care.
I specialize in helping individuals experiencing anxiety, depression, mood disorders, life transitions, grief and loss, ADHD, and addiction concerns, including alcohol use, substance use, and gambling. My goal is to provide a safe, supportive, and nonjudgmental environment where you feel heard, valued, and actively involved in your care.
At Grace Psychiatry & Wellness, I believe mental health treatment should be personalized and collaborative. Together, we will explore your concerns, develop an evidence-based treatment plan, and work toward improving your overall wellness and quality of life.

Factors to Consider When Choosing an Addiction Therapist in Pittsburgh, PA
Finding addiction therapists in Pittsburgh starts with naming the kind of support that fits your needs. Addiction care can include support for alcohol use, drug use, behavioral addictions, relapse prevention, and co-occurring concerns like anxiety, depression, or trauma. As you compare therapists, look for listed experience with substance use, counseling and recovery guidance, individual drug counseling, or therapy for substance use disorder. Some therapists use approaches like motivational interviewing or cognitive behavioral therapy for substance use. Some people may also work with a prescriber as part of their care team.
Pittsburgh has many therapy options across neighborhoods like Shadyside, Squirrel Hill, Oakland, and the South Side, as well as nearby communities across Allegheny County. Your best fit may depend on practical details, including appointment times, whether virtual care is available, and whether the therapist is accepting new patients. Recovery can include changes over time, so it helps to look for a therapist who describes a clear, non-judgmental approach and experience with harm reduction frameworks. Read therapist bios before booking to see how they describe their style, specialty experience, and what sessions may look like.
Therapy in Pittsburgh can be a significant investment without insurance. Using in-network insurance is one of the most reliable ways to reduce session costs and see your estimated cost before you book. Headway helps you search for addiction therapists, check available insurance coverage for your specific plan, explore virtual or in-person appointments, and find providers who are accepting new patients. You can compare profiles, filter by preferences, and book directly when you’re ready.
